What is on your music playlist right now?
I don’t listen to music all that much. I like quiet when I read or write, and that’s how I spend most of my time. When I want some music, I listen to Pandora on the TV and choose something instrumental. Mostly New Age or Ambient. Sometimes Classical. Never anything vocal because my hearing isn’t all that great, and singing gets all muddled.
At night I will sometimes listen to soft meditative music on my Kindle to help me relax and go to sleep. I set the timer for an hour. I can’t remember the last time I heard the music stop, so I know it works.
That’s it!
A bit boring perhaps, but I am happy.

I rarely have music playing although both my children and theirs ,have music on all the time. I quite like the peace to allow me to read or write. And even with hearing aids, I still have problems with some voices on TV.
I remember when I had music on all the time, but that was several years ago. Now I like quiet most of the time.
At the moment my tv is not good for listening. The sound controls need adjusting I think. Background noise, music etc is so loud anymore it’s overshadowing the voice

I have some problems with voices on the TV. Seems it is a common problem. I had my hearing checked and hearing aids won’t help. If it gets to the point that I can’t hear well when listening to someone talking to me face to face, I will get hearing aids to help with that. But the TV thing will continue being a problem. Bummer.
Yes it seems that streaming is not improving – just the opposite
I love almost all music. Instrumentals are wonderful for relaxing.
I used to like folk and rock music. But these days, it’s primarily instrumentals.
I can’t honestly, with my hearing issues, hear music anymore, something I’ve accepted, but in my mind I still can. I’m grateful for what I can enjoy, like reading and writing. 🙂
I have difficulty with music that has vocals. Seems it is common for people, of a certain age.😾
My certain age is certainly becoming a problem. sigh
I like instrumental music too. It entertains without overtaking our thinking.
I agree. I like that it relaxes and doesn’t interrupt my thought process.
Yup!
Our Dad is always listening to or play music up in his music room.
Do you listen to music with him? It can be a good time for a cuddle.
I would have to charge it but I honestly didn’t know you could set a timer on the kindle. Is that only Pandora? I have Spotify.
I don’t know about Spotify, but you can use Amazon Music. There are probably others. Maybe Google Play?
I will have to check. I love nature sounds but always laugh when I’m close to sleep and they throw in some bird squawking!
